Mosoni Danube is a protected side branch of the Danube. It is 20-60 meters wide, winding mainly on the upper part. It is one of the most excellent locations for canoeing tours in Hungary. The landscape is diverse; we pass by beautiful forests and great fields, beaches with atmosphere. We spend two nights on an island!

The daily distance is not exhausting, so we will have enough time for the afternoon games: war of numbers, water fights and splashing. Sunbathing during the day, then making fire, playing the guitar or talking in the evenings. The Killer Game goes on!

The river is free from floods; the riverbank is pebbly and the campsites are very nice. There are many exciting islands and grassy riversides, which are the scenes of lunch and fun.

The fauna is unique: beavers, lutras, herons, egrets and thousands of ducks nest by the water.

Speciality: we will make a short detour from the Danube and go sightseeing by canoe to Mosonmagyaróvár; We'll park the canoes 100m from the centre!

Farewell party right by the river in Győr!
